me again with another issue!, great! sorry guys

but heres the verdict

i have a Pro action replay for the SNES
i also have a game genie
i also have a copy of final fantasy VI (III) american version

im bored, and i decided lets exploit some games!

2 main codes i have always used on FFVI when im just messing around (this time i wanted to try some in game glitches i found on youtube)  is start with all
magic and 99 of all items just to move things along a little faster to get to these glitches (starting a new game)

i never had this happen before except with earthbound, just messing around, which i now regret cuz i lost my complete saved game because of it, i thought it was just  the battery in the game going bad at the same time i decided to use the pro action replay. i put it away and continued my day.

today with final fantasy VI, i tried using my game genie, which i have used in the past with the same cart, well now when i enter the codes i wanted to use and hit start, screen goes black, and nothing i even waited 20 minutes just in case it was being slow or something lol. (with the switch on and off)

nothing happened, gave the contacts a good cleaning just in case, still nothing, so  i decided to see if i could find the same 2 codes for pro action replay, sure enough i did and i tried using that, entered the codes started the game, and yaayyy the game boots up, but all my saves are GONE, and it made me think, this happened with earthbound too, so i ended up googling around for some answers, nothing near my problem (common problem is with PAL systems) with my same problem but for people trying to play NTSC games on a PAL system.
well thats not my case im using ALL NTSC


so whats the deal, i have a Pro action replay that deletes my saved games (even tested on Zelda before posting this) and guess what saves gone!

i didnt test all my games, but my game genie only will boot up F zero

and the issue happens with or with out codes, i also tested the game genie by filling it all the lines with 0000-0000 and hit reset to see if it keeps the codes in memory and it does and its a version 1.0 with the dashes already on the code screen (version 2.0 dashes show up as you enter the code)


please i hope some one can help!

Now I don't have any cheating devices but I'm surprised that you can use it at all with FF as I heard saves being deleted by Action Replay is very common. Especially with FFVI. It was a Swedish source though so I bet it's related to the PAL system like you said.

Yeah that's what's got me frazzled about it, is that I can't seem to find any info on it, also game genie which onced worked with the game, now doesn't I mean its not a big loss or anything, because I don't cheat to do a play through of a game, I mainly use the devices to check out some glitches or just to mess around, I was just hoping some one may know
